The sad thing is after more than 2 decades in business they still look primitive which leads you to think were does the money go. Sad but true.

Well I've decided to go to Spartan because I know a graduate who is doing her second year of residency in Family Practice, so at least I know it's legit. St. Martinus on the other hand, I'm sure it's fine, but because it's still so new, I'm just too nervous about it. The facilities look the same at both schools so that doesn't really affect my decision.

Spartan here I come!

I am glad you made a choice you are comfortable with. I loved the school and my time on the island (well loved is a loaded word). Island life is nothing like life in the states so get used to that idea. Classes are small and prof's are friendly so you should have a positive experience there (if those are the things you are looking for). Hope all turns out well for you. Good Luck

Sparta

Good luck in Spartan

There are many successful grads from basic sciences doing rotations in Canada.

The point of these caribbean schools is your chance to write the step 1. As for going back to Canada then your MCQEE and so forth. It is doable and it has been done, just study hard and know your stuff.

For you wanting to go to Canada then get the Toronto Notes material and study all of that as that is what you will be tested on. It is even good for the steps if you should choose to write them. If you want to do rotations in the US you will have to write the Step 1. However, there are many students who do their rotations in Canada also.

Good luck
